Print Recipe

A quick and easy overnight oats recipe with creamy peanut butter, ripe banana, and Greek yogurt. Perfect for meal prep and busy mornings, this no-cook breakfast is naturally sweetened and packed with protein and fiber.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk (any kind)
  • 1/4 cup (60g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons (32g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1 medium ripe banana (about 100g mashed)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a mason jar or airtight container, mash half of the banana (about 50g) with a fork until smooth with a few small lumps.
  2. Add the milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey, and peanut butter. Stir until the peanut butter is mostly incorporated.
  3. Add the rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), and a pinch of salt. Stir until well combined and the oats are fully submerged.
  4. Slice the remaining banana half and arrange the slices on top of the oat mixture. Gently press them down so they are partially submerged.
  5. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight (8-12 hours).
  6. In the morning, stir the oats. If too thick, add a splash of milk. Serve cold or warm in the microwave for 30-45 seconds. Top with extra peanut butter, granola, or banana slices if desired.

Notes

Use a very ripe banana for natural sweetness. For a vegan version, use plant-based milk, coconut yogurt, and maple syrup. For a chocolate version, add 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder. Oats keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. Do not freeze.
